About Missouri Union Presbytery
The Presbytery of Missouri Union is the governing body for 74 Presbyterian churches in North and Central Missouri. We are part of the Presbyterian Church, USA, the largest Presbyterian denomination in the United States. The geographical area that makes up Missouri Union Presbytery stretches from the Missouri/Iowa border on the north to the Lake of the Ozarks on the South, from the Mississippi River on the East to U.S. Highway 65 on the West.
Presbyterians are Christians, who believe in traditions that came out of the Protestant Reformation, such as: the primary importance of reading and understanding Scripture, that God calls ALL people to ministry, and that lay members, not just clergy, are to fully participate in the work of the church. "Presbyterian" describes our form of church government, where elected leaders (Elders) make decisions for the church.
Congregations with members of many ages and stages, in both small and large communities, are part of Missouri Union Presbytery. To find a church near you, please link to the PCUSA website (upper left-hand on website home page) and enter you zip code or the name of a nearby city/town. To speak with a person, please email/phone the presbytery office in Jefferson City (contact info below).

R.B. Turpin suffered a setback last week. On Friday, April 25, he was returned to ICU at St.Luke's Hospital in Chesterfield. Doctors performed a tracheotomy to facilitate his breathing and reduce the risk of pneumonia. He continues to receive nourishment through a feeding tube and has paralysis on his right side.
Please continue to pray for R.B. and his family. Laura and the congregation of Antioch Presbyterian are grateful to God for His grace and mercy. They also appreciate your prayers and love. Please continue to include them in your daily prayers. |
